There are many benefits to having skylight and conservatory blinds fitted in your home or commercial property. What makes our bespoke blinds different from those purchased off the shelf is that we carefully tailor our blinds to complement your home or office with a high level of aesthetic appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We understand there is no one-size-fits-all solution for buying and fitting skylight blinds. Our skylight blinds are made to measure and can also be fitted in conservatories. When you want a combination of excellent light control and energy-saving efficiency, skylight blinds are a great solution. We measure, design, and manufacture blinds to fit any window size or shape. Your bespoke skylight blinds can be created from any of our huge range of fabrics. We deliver every level of shading from light filtering through to full dim-out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avoid sagging and fading<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our skylight and conservatory blinds are made from high-quality, fade-resistant materials. Our zipped-edge fabric retention system and constant-tension spring technology eliminate the fabric stretching and sagging commonly found with inferior-quality blinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means our retractable skylight blinds are a perfect solution for shading roof lights, atria, and angled windows. You will get years of high performance from our blinds, enabling you to shade or completely darken rooms with minimal sagging. The motorised operation of your skylight blinds makes it easy to control them from anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ideal skylight blind for you will depend on how you want to use your space. You can choose from a wide range of fabrics to create a comfortable level of shade or achieve complete blackout. For example, you may want to install skylight shades to completely darken a living room or entertainment space to watch screen-projected movies, where glare from a skylight may affect the quality of your experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose from manual or motorised designs depending on your needs. If your skylights are very high up or difficult to reach, we strongly recommend electric skylight blinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Made to measure conservatory blinds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Conservatories add valuable living space to our homes. But sometimes, the glare from the sun through the glass makes the space feel virtually unusable. During the early spring, winter, and late autumn, the space can also feel chilly, and you may worry about the extra expense of heating your conservatory to make good use of it outside of summertime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conservatory blinds reduce glare during the height of summer and deliver excellent light control. Blinds also provide good UV protection for soft furnishings, preventing fabric and wood surfaces from fading or warping due to direct sunlight exposure. Installing blinds also helps to absorb sound and prevents it from reverberating off the hard surfaces in your conservatory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the colder months of the year, your conservatory blinds can help retain heat and lower your energy bills. Adding blinds can extend the usability of your conservatory and enable you to enjoy it all year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conservatory blinds can provide a layer of insulation over the windows – especially if you choose high-quality insulating material that helps to retain the heat in your conservatory, keeping the space at a comfortable temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solve your privacy issues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The extensive glazing in your conservatory makes it an excellent space to enjoy during the day. It is a bright and airy space where you can relax, read a book or listen to music. However, the biggest drawback of having what is essentially a glass-walled room is the lack of privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the nights start drawing in, you may want to continue to enjoy your conservatory but feel a little exposed sitting in your brightly lit space where everyone outside can see you. Rather than retreat indoors and abandon your conservatory once the evenings become dark, you could have conservatory blinds installed instead!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If privacy is an issue with your conservatory or your neighbours can see into your home through your skylight windows, we can install very aesthetically pleasing blinds in fabrics, colours, and patterns to suit your personal taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
